A bud today, a blossom tomorrow, the journey of the lotus flower mirrors our own paths in life. Each petal unfolds one after the other, symbolizing stages of personal growth. Its journey starts beneath the surface, in the muddy, murky waters, symbolizing the trials we all face. The lotus doesn't rush to bloom; it patiently navigates through the darkness, always reaching toward the light. And when it finally surfaces, it stands pristine and beautiful, untouched by the mud below, symbolizing purity, resilience, and the triumph of spirit over matter. * Handcrafted lotus wall hanging * Made from upcycled metal * Finished in a distressed black metal * Measures about 47" tall in total * The widest lotus is about 9.
